My HUD tiles will NOT appear - I've tried everything

This is kind of an odd bug, and I'm hoping it's simply something I FORGOT to initialize. Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I've been following along the Adventure Gaming tutorial. I established the 'HUD area' very early on in my build. (It's 2 tiles high and takes up the width of the screen, for anyone wondering.)

So far, I've designed a few screens, added a few monsters, a main player, some music. The game starts and tests just fine. When I go to create my HUD, I add the HUD .bmp from the Adventure Module (as instructed by the tutorial), save in my GraphicsAssets folder, and NOTHING appears in my HUD dev window -- just an all black tileset with no characters or anything -- a completely blank tileset. Did I do something incorrectly?

I even verified, via Project Settings -> Tilesets, that my HUD tileset was pointing to the CORRECT bmp in the CORRECT folder. Still... no dice.

Thanks in advance!

Did you set your "HUD Elements" tab, the element to display?
Can you share some screenshots?

So...for reasons I can't really explain... the HUD tiles just appeared in my project. I have no clue why this happened. All that seems to have changed is that I had closed and re-opened the project a few times since.

How bizarre.

Thanks to all for reading, and dale_coop for replying.

Cheers,
